   Hello all :-)

I have been given a AC, been standing for many many years in a garage.  am just guessing and trying to do research. I will try to post pic later, but will be grateful for advice.

I think it is a model B :-)

It has two fuel tanks, i know one for petrol and the other for TVO.

How do you run them now days? TVO still aviable and what about using unleaded petrol?
Where are the chasis and engine numbers location?
how would i registar it, for road/show use?
what about tax,mot and insurance?

Thx for reading and sorry for lack on knowledge, i like to keep her and restore it, it deserve that. I always restored reliants and this is new to me lol, but i will learn if you guys help me out lol

	Welcome to the forum! I can't help you, but I know there are others here that can. Several pictures of it when you're able would be good too. There's another guy on here from England (Dave Everett), but right now he's visiting not far from me & I'll see him this weekend.
